TBT to my first 3 weeks in The Instructional Coaching Institute! Learning about & reflecting on partnership principles, the art of helping, & listening for better conversations is making me a better coach - and human! Thank you Jim Knight 🇺🇦 & Jessica Wise for guiding the way!

So many smiles (and maybe a little dancing 💃) when this box from the Instructional Coaching Group arrived today! ❤️🎉 Can’t wait to learn with Jim Knight 🇺🇦 in 2024. Thank you Diego Lehocky for this amazing opportunity!

This one of my favorite aspects of the NHCS Emerging Leaders program! ❤️ When we reimagine learning for our teachers, we create new experiences and opportunities for our students! #nhcschat #nhcsleads New Hanover County Schools Katie Martin Learner-Centered Collaborative

Can honestly say todays visit here with the wonderful NHCS Emerging Leaders seriously has made a life changing impact on me #nhcsleads Harrelson Center

It was an honor to collaborate with the “Mermaid of Education” to share the NHCS Emerging Leaders program with educators across southeast NC! So proud of this program and appreciative of all of the people who make it possible! #NHCSchat #NHCSleads

Is there a connection between surfing and education?
Sean Stanek, an 8th-grade teacher at Holly Shelter M.S. believes so.

His Pathway Project with NHCS Emerging Leaders teaches students who otherwise would not be exposed to the sport to build self-esteem and confidence. #nhcschat

We have the best PTA at BradleyCreekElem! They set up a table to help students make a card for their teachers…THIS is equity! Love that every student had resources & support if they needed it. #nhcschat #everychildmatters

I had the pleasure of watching the Winter Park Elementary students perform on stage tonight! Their enthusiasm, talent, and dedication filled my heart and reminded me, yet again, that there are so many things an EOG can never measure. #Nhcsleads #LCInnovation
